A little advice needed!

jbcollins87 · 07-07-2014, 10:34 AM

So i have run in to some rough financial times. I have a pretty good sized collection but i cant decide which ones would be the most logical to move.

I have Jeter and Trout who i will most likely keep unless im out on the streets lol but also have a sizeable Harper, Olt and Springer Collection.

I went to Uconn to Olt and Springer are near to my heart but harper probably has the most potential to hold on to. Would you wait on all of these to see if they improve or would you say Olt and Springer have peaked out at this point? Same with Harper.

Any advice would be awesome!

Thanks guys!

Personally, I would definitely cash in on Springer. I'd say the same on Olt, but I honestly have no clue how his stuff is doing. I have a few Olt autos, but I always just assume they're $1 or something.

Best of luck man. I'm renovating my basement and have been considering moving some of my non-Cardinals PC items (Trout auto jersey, Griffey 90's inserts, etc) to fund the material purchases, so I'm in a somewhat similar situation.

Olt has lost value. He hasn't shown any sign of improvement this year that everyone was hoping for. Unless he suddenly turns it around I wouldn't look for much out of his cards right now.

Olt wont get you much, wait on harper and sell half the Springers.

thanks for the advice guys! yeah looks like the window on Olt came and went already this year...i dont think his stuff is moving for too much. 85GoCards - i feel your pain! i know it makes the most sense to move the springers but i actually watched him play in college i dont know which ones i would move! the one im considering is i have 2 of the 2013 bowman chrome red /5 but im afraid ill regret what i get for it

thanks again guys any other input if anyone is in similiar situations let me know!
